Step 1: What U Need:

lawnmower wheels $10 a piece from ace hardware or home depot allthread with appropriate nuts, as big as u can fit in the ½" copper (or steel if u want) pipe duct tape/hot glue (optional) to keep the nuts from shaking off drill bit a bit bigger than ur allthread

Step 2: Drill Out Holes

make the back holes a bit larger to accomidate the althread

Step 3: What You Need:

Here is the stuff that I used: some ½ copper pipe the biggest allthread that you can fit in the pipe some nuts that fit the allthread some lawnmower wheels,any size will work,bigger the cooler an old scooter a large drill bit a bit larger than the allthread,size will vary by scooter some duct tape

Step 4: Reove Back Wheel

You might need an allen wrench or a screw driver again scooters vary........

Step 5: Assemble

sorry this is pretty undetailed......

order:

nut,wheel,pipe,scooter,pipe,wheel,nut,all of that on the allthread in that order

Step 6: Secure the Nuts

Add some duct tape around the nuts so they do not shake off.

Step 7: Test!!

It worked Great! it bent a bit but i am vey heavy most kids could ride it no problem. that's my sis standing on it,just but one foot on each piece of pipe!

OK, 2 1/2 years (or more) late and probably more use to any other readers, but...

Nylon locknuts will work - and look - better than duct tape.

And another piece of pipe, used as a spacer between the rear forks, would add a good bit of strength - especially if you use steel - partly because it would allow you to really tighten down on your allthread.
